Example: 

#include "mbed.h"

MMA8452 mma8452(p28,p27);  // SDA, SCL
Serial serial(USBTX,USBRX);
 
int main() {
 
    mma8452.init();  // 100 Hz update rate, ±4g scale
 
    Acceleration acceleration;  // Accleration structure declared in MMA8452 class
 
    while(1) {
 
        acceleration = mma8452.readValues();   // read current values and print over serial port
        serial.printf("x = %.2f g y = %.2f g z = %.2f g\n",acceleration.x,acceleration.y,acceleration.z);
        wait(0.1);   // short delay until next reading
